Fabulous card Laura!
I envy your ability to colour items in – love the shading on the windows. I failed Art 101 at highschool (compulsory!) especially the concept of shading. I will simply enjoy your work instead of reliving the horror of being told to sit down and stop working on my shading before I really ruined it! LOL! I follow the blog by email.
LOL at Laura’s narration! And the coloring looks super cute and fun–who wouldn’t love to get this card?
Awesome job coloring all the highlights and shadows. When you have a stunning focal point, like the one on your card, you really don’t need a lot of extra embellishments. I struggle with leaving white space…but I think I can learn to change, thanks for the video.
It is an awesome card! Thanks for showing us how to use the stamp set in a way other than travel. I appreciate the video you shared. I agree with Mary R.’s comment above — I struggle with white space as well.
I love that wagon too since I grew up with one LOL. Such a cute card you are like me and love balloons. Always a pleasure!!!
That’s a clean and a beautiful Card. TFS
I am on a balloon kick to lately! Although your balloons are much prettier than mine! I’ve been using sewing thread as the strings because I can’t find any other line in town… not craft store!
I Love a good one layer card but this is awesome!!

Such a fun and happy card here from LAura. really awesome and beautiful coloring.
The car stamp reminds me of my Dad’s car when I was younger. I wish I had tied a bunch of colorful balloons to it! Such a fun card Laura!
Love the vibrant colors. You look like a Copic pro to me!
Love your videos, Laura. You crack me up! Your Copic secret is safe with me! LOL!
What a great card! I love this stamp set. That station wagon reminds me of one my parents had when I was a kid…complete with the wood grain panels on the side! LOL
That card just makes me want to go on vacation!
I really love doing non-traditional wedding cards

Love that rainbow collection of balloons, such a fun card.
I love this car, it makes me smile every time I see it zooming across then split coast screen! I think the next one should be the puppy running across the screen!
Really cute card! I love the way the larger balloons make it seem as if they’re drifting toward the viewer!
Great card. I love the rainbow colours of the balloons!
I love rainbows, too, and coloring the balloons like a rainbow is such a fun idea.
